Kabel Deutschland (KD) has selected ARRIS to supply its ongoing M-CMTS, Digital TV and VOD deployments going forward, using the D5 Universal Edge QAM.  Additionally, ARRIS and KD have agreed to collaborate on advancing support for the DVB-C2 standard, which is a critical component in KD’s plans for deploying DVB-C2 broadcast and VoD solutions in the future.

The ARRIS D5 Universal Edge QAM will allow KD to implement QAM sharing at one of the lowest power consumption rates per channel.  It also reduces OPEX through network monitoring and management tools that allow KD to mix and match video services to the evolving needs of their subscribers.
